07:33 pm - SBCL in Debian testing (lenny)

Recently I noticed that SBCL in Debian testing is quite old; it is currently at 0.9.16 and evidently blocked there:

=== sbcl:
= Missing build(s) on alpha,sparc
 This might need manual action from your side.
 See http://buildd.debian.org/pkg.cgi?pkg=sbcl
= No migration to testing for 585 days.
 See <http://release.debian.org/migration/testing.pl?package=sbcl>

I have tried to stir the pot, and there has been some progress. This version of testing will release as lenny in the fall, and it would be a shame if it released with such an old version of SBCL.
